Having OCD or anxiety can make make every day tasks seem nearly impossible. It can sap you of your energy and ability to enjoy the things you love. On top of that, you likely have harsh judgements about having anxiety, leading to frustration and sadness. Maybe you've tried therapy in the past but nothing seems to stick. Having worked with so many people who have suffered with these conditions, I hear and feel what you are going through. I have dedicated my career to helping you understand your anxiety and build the skills to address it.

Life is not easy and an outlet can make all the difference in creating a better version of yourself. There is no shame in looking inwards and seeing what your fears or sorrows are. I take pride in providing a safe space where one can open up and talk about their feelings and life experiences. "If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present -Lao Tzu"

As an active therapist, I help individuals, couples, families, and children identify and transform the story that has been governing their life. It is my belief, that with the right support everyone has the innate capability to show up and transform their life. Past or present circumstances may have created pain or a belief of powerlessness, but these circumstances do not define you. You can reclaim your power and sense of authorship over your own life. In the words of Marianne Wiliamson, " Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."

Thank you visiting my page. Anxiety can have a paralyzing effect making it difficult to make choices or to live your life to the fullest. The constant doubt can be exhausting and confusing. While depression can convince us that we can't and that our future is hopeless. These feelings can lead us to get stuck in unhelpful patterns that are hard to stop. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space to identify strategies you can use to break out of these self-defeating patterns so that you can live a more fulfilled life.

My philosophy is simple in regards to problem solving, effective communication, improving relationships, working towards reaching a personal maximum potential and in healing from trauma. It’s to identify thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs. I believe that as soon as a person is able to communicate these four insight oriented drives, life immediately begins to improve and problems get solved. While this may sound easy, for many people it takes time to gain insight, self-evaluate, uncover and accept why we are the way we are (ie: biology and life experiences), decide on and follow through on changes to make in their life.

Hoarding Therapists

What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?

Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.

How long does therapy for hoarding take?

Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.

Are there medications for hoarding?

The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.

Can hoarding come back after treatment?

Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
